It is National Holiday here in Croatia (Assumption of Mary) and I have just spend 4 hours (from 11 AM till 3 PM) in front of the BBQ - and the temperature was arround 30 ºC (86 ºF) :nj
So, instead of a SOTD photo, I give You this one:

HAVE A GREAT MONDAY GENTS :tu
Pre-Shave: Hot shower Brush: 25mm Morris & Forndran Blonde Badger (with Bone Handles) Razor: 6/8" Livi, Full Hollow Ground, Round Point (w/ Amboyna Burl scales) Strop: 25/45 (Neil Miller Linen / Ambrose Horsehide leather) Überlather: Acca Kappa "1869" Shave Creme + Acca Kappa "1869" Shave Soap + Glycerin Toner: Thayer's Witch Hazel (Rose, no alcohol) Moisturizer: Trumper's Fragrance-free Moisturizer After Shave Splash: Proraso AS Cologne: Acca Kappa "1869" EdC Results: Great shave with the Livi...Stropping with this beauty can be risky as the etchings on the tang have a tendency to catch the leather and scratch it...Not wishing to bring this onto my Imperial strop, I switched to my Ambrose. The Acca Kappa was a perfect match with the Livi. Lovely shave all the way to the core:y.

Floid Vigoroso a/s
444 a/s balm
Woods of Windsor Edt
Dug out the Mentolo from the back of the closet and stayed with the menthol theme with the Floid and the 444. Two passes and a jawline touch-up and another fine New York steel shave. A slight mishap on my neck to remind me not to get complacent...some styptic pencil took care of that. Now for some coffee and a Padron 3000 maduro. And today will be better than yesterday.
